Congratulations on your very interesting paper, 'Genomic Relationships and Speciation Times of Human, Chimpanzee, and Gorilla Inferred from a Coalescent Hidden Markov Model', about which I have a question. Based on your estimations of the human/chimp split at 4 million years ago, at what time do you place the great/lesser apes split, the Old World monkey/ape split, and the Old/New World anthropoid split?
